Do we spend money on cars with piston slap? 700

My 90 745 apparently has piston slap during warm-up. From what I've read, I'm assuming this is a mechanical condition that can't be fixed with engine additives or better oil, etc. So IF that's true, my next thoughts are: Does it get worse or just keep on slappin forever? -Because the car needs a new rack and struts. Do we spend this kind of money and time (DIY) on a car with piston slap? If it does get worse, How much quality time do we have left together?
